A video selection was prepared for Video Diners organised by Cultural Incubator – MKC Maribor to present guest artists and organisations which would prepare thematic video projections spiced up by culinary goods and non-formal conversation of the participants. For the occasion, we were at first led by the idea to examine the functionality of tagging at http://www.e-arhiv.org/diva web site that is navigating the users through extensive video materials of the physical video archive DIVA Station. The number of the works on the screening is identical to the number of videos connected with the keyword “Food”. The word “food” was selected also to dedicate this Video Diner to the question of the role of the sense of smell and taste in the field of visual arts that is connecting them more with catering and less with aesthetic experience. We have set ourselves a very literal task to dedicate a social event to tickling of the taste buds and to filling up the space with the smell and the taste.
